Flat out with (swine?) flu





This is Mum's new flat sitting in empty anticipation of the onslaught of two truckloads of goods arriving in just a few days now. I'm sure the 'after' pictures will look good too.

Which brings me to a swinish flu that's caught me for the third time this year. I'd been so fed up with it that I succumbed to visiting the local GP. Well, what an experience. I made the mistake of mentioning 'swine flu' and that was enough to set him off on a rant that included horses and zebras, dogs and pigs and people swarming to his surgery demanding tests that he adamantly refused to perform. After 20 minutes of Dr Fawlty, I left wondering what on earth had possessed me to stop by. Swine flu seems to have this effect on people. So I'll just keep quiet about it and hope it goes away soon.
